----------------------------------------------------------------------
【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

[Prevents overexposure and underexposure due to differences in brightness] 49mm filter diameter (filter body + magnetic lens adapter set) The H&Y HD EVO-series Balancer GND16 Filter Kit is an H&Y Evo series gradient ND16 filter that allows you to choose between two mounting methods: magnetic mode (magnetic attachment/detachment) and screw-in mode (screw-in), enabling you to adjust exposure in scenes with differences in brightness.
[Two attachment/detachment methods to choose from] Screw-in mode is available by screwing it directly onto the lens without using the adapter ring, while magnetic mode is available by attaching the included magnetic lens adapter [ELA] to the lens for instant attachment and detachment/exchange. It is compatible with conventional H&Y magnetic filters, and can be used to exchange or stack various magnetic filters such as CPL and night filters, and the included adapter ring, step-up ring [MA] and lens cap [LC] can still be used.
【Ideal GND Coating】The neutral and even GND coating achieved through vacuum deposition allows for use without worrying about color shift (color distortion). It is ideal for adjusting exposure. The glass is made of high-quality German-made SCHOTT B270 glass, and precise polishing maintains high flatness, ensuring that the lens's original performance is not compromised even when used in combination with other lenses. The low-reflection coating minimizes flare and ghosting even in scenes with strong light sources.
[Differences in operation depending on the mounting method] In screw-in mode, the effect is adjusted by rotating only the front part of the double frame, just like a conventional screw-in PL filter. In magnetic mode, the entire double frame is rotated without having to think about the individual frame. The frame uses a strong permanent magnet and is made of A6063 aluminum, which is strong and corrosion-resistant.
[H&Y's In-House Production] Featuring a stain-resistant, water-repellent, and scratch-resistant nano-coating (double-sided coating), high flatness achieved through HD polishing technology, German SCHOTT B270 glass, and a thin frame design that minimizes vignetting even with wide-angle lenses, H&Y covers all the necessary features for the latest equipment at a high level. This is possible because H&Y can complete almost all processes, from planning to manufacturing, in-house.
The H&Y HD EVO-series Balancer GND16 Filter Kit (filter body + magnetic adapter ring set) is a GND16 filter that offers two mounting methods: magnetic mode (magnetic attachment/detachment) and screw mode (traditional screw-in). It's ideal for adjusting exposure, preventing overexposure and underexposure in scenes with high brightness differences. The kit includes a Balancer GND filter and lens adapter, allowing for magnetic attachment and detachment of separately sold CPL filters, ND filters, Night filters, Black Mist filters, and lens caps. Vacuum deposition coating achieves an ideal GND coating. The uniform GND coating eliminates color shift, allowing for worry-free use. High-transparency optical glass is used, and precise polishing maintains high flatness, ensuring that the lens's original performance is not compromised even when stacked. * High durability due to heat-treated tempered glass * Anti-static, anti-fouling, water-repellent, scratch-resistant, and low-reflection coating (double-sided coating) *
High flatness thanks to HD polishing technology * Gradient ND allows for partial light reduction * Two mounting methods: magnetic mode via the included EVO magnetic lens adapter ring, and screw-in mode for direct screwing onto the lens without an adapter * Thin frame design minimizes vignetting even with wide-angle lenses * Uses a strong permanent magnet in the frame and is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant A6063 aluminum * Compatible with various conventional H&Y round magnetic filters, as well as the H&Y-manufactured and supplied magnetic slim filters (Marumi Magnetic Slim Filter) sold by Marumi.
